Clothes for the winter June

Between lucking out on sales in San Francisco and my Christmas present which can now be decided on - I believe I have almost all the cold weather clothes I need - yea! Thank you Chris & Reg for the wonderful goose down coat. Did you notice it is incredibly compressible & can be packed into its own pocket and even used as a pillow at a pinch per the description! Perfect considering packing issues. And perfect gift idea since I really, really, didn't want to spend that much. Now I don't have to make do w/ layers & my only coat not in storage good for Bay Area weather only.

- I found sweaters for $15 & $14 at 70% off at Macy's.
- Scarf & great funky fur hat with those hanging flaps like dog ears that go under neck or wrap above the hat for a total of $20 at an odd shop on Mission street.
- fur lined snow boots by Sketcher for $4, yes $4 as used at a "garage sale" at my friend Kips school in San Fran last weekend along with 1 pr of leg warmers & another paid of warm boots with soft soles for inside my little home. All for $15 total.

I've got a fuzzy pair of gloves in my existing coat so unless I decide to add water proof ones, I am good to go!
Spending 2 weeks in San Francisco to practice walking 5 hours per day - LOL and finding all those bargains was a great idea.

Friday it's off to Sanger for a wedding & Fresno to see friends & then back to Sacramento until I leave for Lesotho.

NOW I NEED A SLEEPING BAG.
